Logic Puzzle: The Reddy Children

The Reddy children are all grown up now, making it difficult to guess who is elder or younger to whom. 

At a recent family get together, this became quite the topic of discussion. An old, distantly related grandma offered to jog her memory and share whatever she could remember. Can you piece together the order (eldest - youngest) in which the Reddy children were born, with these statements? (The Reddy children themselves offer no help, no further guidance from anywhere is forthcoming) - ONLY these statements? 

A. Madan was named after Gopal, his immediate elder brother. 

B. Nisha is older than Supriya and Saurabh is elder to Pavan. 

C. Asha was the eldest, and Madan right in the middle. 

D. Supriya was born just a few years before Saurabh. 

Yes, these clues are enough.
